This release was issued under a previous government.

Fact sheets and educational information on safety standards and environmental regulations will be available and a series of questions will help gather ideas and opinions on this important topic.

The online feedback form will be available until July 15 and will be supplemented by discussions with local stakeholders in Grande Prairie, Red Deer, Calgary, and Lethbridge between June 16 - 24. 

The ministries of Energy, Health, Municipal Affairs and the Alberta Energy Regulator and the Property Rights Advocate will participate in the discussions using the same information available to online participants.

“Alberta has a rich history of energy development and strict environmental regulations and safety standards in place. With this online tool municipalities, industry, stakeholder organizations, and all interested Albertans will have the opportunity to learn more about how energy development is regulated and monitored in Alberta, and can offer their suggestions on how provincial regulations and policies can balance rapid urban growth and future energy development. I look forward to hearing Albertans views.”

Diana McQueen, Minister of Energy

Under the Building Alberta Plan, our government is investing in families and communities, living within our means, and opening new markets for Alberta's resources to ensure we're able to fund the services Albertans told us matter most to them. We will continue to deliver the responsible change Albertans voted for.
